nope nothing in the tow hook, actually it is the rusty mounting bolt head or something like that, just happens to be the angle of the picture

I got the tow hooks used, hence the rusty bolt

Probably why it was so hard for guys to get them for the past few months, Chrysler was scarfing them all up.

Really? wow now I am really jealous...I remember reading that with the tow package you get tow hooks, 1 front, 1 rear, cuz they thought it wouldnt fit on drivers side or something? What do I know I cant even get a job, working on my offramp sign.... :|

Bill, was your KK equipped with skids from the factory or were they dealer installed?

actually I installed them, but I guess my point is if you can get 2 front tow hooks from the factory and they now offer them on the 2010 why in the world does parts say there is only 1 for the front and 1 for the rear?

Wingnuts, the factory skid plate group option has always come with 2 front and 1 rear tow hook.
My understanding is that the mopar accessory kit only comes with 1 front hook because they are worried about you having to push aside the hose on the driver side.

I also think the problem with the KJ hooks being in stock had more to do with the bankruptcy and temporary problems with suppliers rather than Chrysler snatching them up.

Also the $225 opt for Skid plates and tow hookslike real good now.
Wish our came with it. but it was not installed and we did not order ours.

Our KK was sitting on the lot for 9 months before we found it.....

Oh well, the Wife said it will be 3.3 year before it goes off road, so I have time to add on things slowly and wait for results on lifts........

Kills me
